Vote AGAINST Tarkington ISD $80 Million dollar bond raising our property taxes on the ballot! they didn’t listen in May 2023 that no means no and are asking for more than the $59 million that was voted down.
Agreed.
If you don’t vote for the Tarkington ISD bond how will your schools be able to hold all the new kids coming in? Cleveland ISD didn’t get the bond approved for a new high school. Now our kids are suffering. Not enough room for them. This will be your schools as well. I heard Colony Ridge is making it’s way to your schools too.
Our kids will suffer more if it does pass.
Then there’ll be that much more room to bring more kids in and you think colony ridge is bad , just wait.
I want to pay for the education of the children that belong in Tarkington, not for children of the world.
I can’t afford it.
I Haven’t?
Had a child in school since 1992. I’ve been paying school. Taxes, it is for the children of this school district for 30 years with no advantage to me. Mother has been paying school taxes for. Shelton, if I see him at work.I’m just going to fifty years with no advantage to her. That’s enoughand it is hard all these years and everything kept going up-and-up and up.We have all struggled our seniors.Have struggled and then you want more and more from us.
And you.
Want us to educate the world instead of our kids nope.
It does.
N’t matter how much money we put into that school.If it turns into call me ridge , your children will not be educated
I’ve watched it all over the place.And the kids that are supposed to be in this school district are pushed asidewatched it in Harris County Liberty County tarrant county and santa fe county
You listen all around our country.Paris are complaining all over this country because the kids get all the advantages and our kids are pushed aside.So our kids aren’t gonna get an education
This has nothing to do with the children that come in. They can’t help it. But I want America first.
